2015 Map of West of Soda Lake

About this map

Beacon Station sits within the arid expanse of the Mojave Desert, marking a point of interest along the southern edge of this San Bernardino County survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of the Soda Mountains to the northwest, while the eastern portion of the map captures the western boundary of the Mojave National Preserve. Transport corridors dominate the central and southern reaches, where the historic Arrowhead Trl and Zzyzx Rd converge. This 2015 study illustrates the modern infrastructure of the California desert, showing the alignment of Rasor Rd as it cuts across the township lines of t12n r7e and t13n r8e. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of protected wilderness and established desert transit routes in a region defined by its extreme topography.
